What are high security browsers?

 

Web browsers that recognize SSL Certificates with Extended Validation, i.e. trigger address bar green when connecting to the secured site, are considered to be high-security browsers. For instance, Internet Explorer 7 turns the address bar green and displays the name of the organization listed in the certificate as well as the certificate’s security vendor. These displays make it easier for website visitors to quickly establish trust in a website.

Internet Explorer 7 and 8, Firefox 3, Opera 9.5, Safari 3.2 and Google Chrome are high-security browsers.
